George Brown transferred to the Miami football program from LSU in 2016. He sat out that season and was expected to challenge to be in the rotation in 2017. Brown played in only three games in 2017. He was initially part of the first-team offense during the spring in 2018 at right tackle.
Brown was moved to guard after repeatedly getting beat by freshman defensive end Greg Rousseau during practices and scrimmages during Spring 2018. A knee injury eventually sidelined Brown for the entire 2018 season. The Hurricanes were never able to solidify right tackle in 2018.
